16. Micro Nutrients in Chelated Form Organic Carbon Fertilizer
Micro Nutrients in chelate form are dissovled in the liquid organic carbon at a ratio of 100 grams per 100 ml of the organic liquid and agitating the liquid until the solids are completely dissolved, to provide organic Micro nutrient complex fertilizer according to crop requirements. The pH of the solution is tested and organic acids preferably propionic acids, or EDTA, are added to the dissolved fertilizer to bring it to a pH of 6.5-7. Should the pH be below 6, KOH or Ammonium Nitrogen is added until the required pH had been reached.
The organic carbon liquid nutrients manufactured as single products as described above may be blended into different ratios, depending on the requirements of the crop (plants need different ratios depending on the stage of its growth).
Once the different nutrients are bound or blended into the organic carbon carrier it becomes a fully organic nutrient and can now be utilised for the production of organically grown fruit, vegetables and other edible plants, suitable for human or animal consumption.
The nutrients in the fertilizer that are now in an organic carbon carrier are far less subject to leaching into the soil solution and pollution of ground water be excess nutrients is greatly restricted. All the Macro and Micro nutrients in the organic carbon carrier are either chelated or clustered. In addition the cations are chelated and the anions are clustered.
The organic carbon nutrients can also be applied as foliar feeds to rectify nutrient deficiencies during the growth cycle of plant.
Another aspect of the invention relates to a liquid composition containing calcium and propionic acid, such as the Calcium Propionate Organic Carbon Fertilizer (4) described above. Apart from being a nutrient to improve the cell structure in plants, this product is a wide spectrum biocide and covers the following diseases:
  • 1. Phytophtera SPP on the following crops:
    • Citrus, avos, macadamias and all other tree crops susceptible to phytophtera as well as potatoes and tomatoes or late blight which is also a phytophtera species.
  • 2. Dawny mildew on all susceptible plants
  • 3. Powdery mildew on all susceptible plants
  • 4. Fusarium SPP
  • 5. Pithium
  • 6. Dollar spot on golf courses
  • 7. Brown spot on golf courses
  • 8. Black spot on citrus
  • 9. Anthracnosis on various crops
  • 10. Bitterpit on apples
  • 11. Internal rot on avos
  • 12. Streptomysis scabbies (known as brown scab on potatoes)
  • 13. Resectoniasolani on potatoes
  • 14. Blossom end rot on watermelons, tomatoes, peppers and other cucurbits
  • 16. Black stem on tobacco, cauliflower, broccoli, and all cabbage crops
  • 17. Fuzy on apples and other pom fruits
  • 18. Moulds and ropes on stored fruit and vegetables
  • 19. Suppression of bacteria wits on various crops
  • 20. Bacterial cancer
  • 21. Bacterial spot on various crops
  • 22. Suppression of nematodes and other parasitic microorganisms.
Another aspect of the invention is a process for manufacturing a dry organic fertilizer using peat as the organic carbon carrier.
Dry organic matter such as peat (i.e. peat with a moisture content of about 12%) is sifted through a 2 mm fine mesh to remove all the insoluble fibres. An organic acid, preferably propionic acid, is added in a ratio of between 500 ml and 1 liter to between 400 and 600 kg of sifted peat, dependant on the volume of the nutrient to be added to the sifted peat. Water is then added until the moisture content of the peat reaches approximately 20%. A dry nutrient, for example potassium sulphate or potassium chloride or a combination of the potassium salts are added to the peat until the total weight is 950 kg. The materials are then thoroughly mixed to form a mixture. The salts dissolve in the water and are bound to or complexed with organic carbon carriers in the mixture. As soon as the salts and the propionic acid are completely dissolved in the wet peat, 50 kg of either magnesium or calcium oxide is added to the mixture, to absorb all free moisture. These products absorb the free moisture and leave the organic potassium dry and ready to be bagged. All nutrients and micro nutrients follow the same process and are blended according to crop requirements.
The same processes are applicable to all nutrients blended into or onto the organic carrier in different concentrations depending on the solubility of each nutrient. The propionic acid assists in dissolving the nutrients that are usually insoluble, for instance calcium phosphates—mono calcium, di calcium and tri calcium phosphates.
Because the peat is high in organic carbon content, it increases the organic carbon content of the soil and serves as a nutrient source for micro organisms in the soil thus improving soil fertility.
Nutrients bound onto or into the organic carbon carrier, are control-released into the soil solution and thus not dependant on the cation exchange capacity of the soil, rendering the nutrients more readily available to the plant. Consequently, far less applied nutrients are necessary and therefore pollution of the soil and soil water is greatly diminished.
